The Low Road (NHB Modern Plays)

A young entrepreneur sets out on a quest for wealth with priceless ambition and a purse of gold. This fable of free-market economics and cut-throat capitalism premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in March 2013, directed by Dominic Cooke, in his final production as Artistic Director of the theatre. 'What a play... rich, turbulent and satirical' - Guardian 'A romping, sprawling barnstormer' - The Times 'A roguish mix of Henry Fielding and Bertolt Brecht... laudably ambitious in scope and playful in style' - Financial Times 'A punchy piece about the excesses of capitalism... plenty of stinging lines' - Evening Standard
